🌐 Understanding Exchange Rates Made Simple

Exchange rates tell you how much one currency is worth compared to another—like how many US dollars you get for one South African rand.
They change all the time because of global supply and demand, inflation, and even political events.

When a currency strengthens, it can buy more of another currency.
When it weakens, it buys less.
That’s why tracking the rate before you send money can make a big difference.

For example:
If today the rate is R18.50 = $1 and next week it’s R19.00 = $1, sending $100 costs R50 less—just because the rand weakened.
